Overview

  • Premier League clubs have spent a record £1.63 billion in the current summer window, surpassing previous highs.
  • Six teams—Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City and Tottenham Hotspur—account for just over £1 billion of total outlays.
  • Liverpool leads all clubs with a £269 million spend to date, highlighted by the €125 million signing of Florian Wirtz.
  • Reports suggest Liverpool is preparing a potential €172 million bid for Newcastle’s Alexander Isak, which would break the league’s single-window fee record if completed.
  • Football finance experts say Liverpool can still invest roughly another £200 million and remain compliant with the Premier League’s Profitability and Sustainability Rules.
